What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Allergic rhinitis affects 30% of the Indian population (Dey et al. in Int Arch Allergy Immunol 178:60-65, 2019). Patients can be sensitive to single or multiple allergens. Polysensitization is more common (Bousquet et al. in Ann Epidemiol 20:797-803, 2010; Arbes et al. in J Allergy Clin Immunol 116:377-383, 2005). Sensitization to multiple allergens may have a role in the severity and the association of Asthma in such patients. A total of 798 patients with allergic rhinitis (SFAR ≥ 7) were included. Disease severity and associated symptoms were evaluated using questionnaire. Each patient underwent a Skin prick test with an allergen panel of 35 allergens each (Annesi-Maesano et al. in Allergy 57:107-114, 2002) and the results were evaluated to study the association of asthma and severity of Allergic rhinitis. Data consisting of 389 (48.7%) males and 409 (51.3%) females were assessed. A total of 82.2% of the study population of symptomatic patients were sensitized to at least one of the allergens. Seventy patients (8.78%) had associated asthma. Forty-four patients were polysensitized and fifteen were mono sensitized. Among polysensitized patients, 36 patients had sensitization to at least 6 different allergens. Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus was the most common allergen among asthma patients. This study provides a thorough knowledge of locally prevalent aeroallergens which is essential for the prompt diagnosis and treatment of allergic patients. Skin prick test can be a non-invasive vital tool in analyzing patterns of allergen exposure, the prevalence of allergen, sensitizing potential of different allergens in that specific geographic area.
